I just got forwarded a link from Tiagosh regarding a new backend for Google
Hangouts.

https://github.com/tiagosh/telepathy-hanging/
it requires https://github.com/tiagosh/libhangish/ and up-to-date
telepathy-qt.

Offline messages work, group chats work. It looks very encouraging.

Worth checking out and contributing to. I see that Kaffeine has already :D

>From a KTp side we need to the account creation side, I had to create it
with:

 mc-tool add hanging/hangouts google string:account=
davidedmundson39 at gmail.com stri
ng:password=hunter2

I'm not sure how we go about adding this with the new auth stuff.
Martin, could you give some pointers.

David
